Garfield County, Colorado. It is approximately 5 miles east of Carbondale, 14 miles southeast of Glenwood Springs and 2 miles north of the Roaring Fork River. Topographically, the site is classified as an upland mesa with low rolling hills and has previously been used as an irrigated pasture land. GEOLOGY: The entire subdivision is underlain by an extensive series of basalt flows. A water well drilled within a half mile of the site encountered basalt from the surface to 325 feet --the maximum depth of drilling. The exact age of the flows has not been established; however, they are believed to have occurred from the Miocene Epoch to the Pleistocene Epoch or as old as 25 million years to as recent ns 1 million years. It is believed that these flows cover the Eagle Valley Evaporite Formation, which consists of thin beds of gypsum and shale and has been known to cause a number of sinkhole depressions where it is at or near the surface. The soils on the property appear to be residual; that is, they are derived from the weathering of the basalt beneath them. The soil is a light tan, very calcareous, silty clay which is very loose near the surface and becomes increasingly more compact and cemented with increasing depth. This material may be slightly expansive in nature due to its clay content. The drainage pattern is a poorly developed dendritic type. There are no continuously flowing streams on the property, and only one intermittent stream is indicated on the USGS 7.5' Carbondale Quadrangle map. This stream flows West and South from the site and it would appear that all surface runoff drains to the Roaring Fork River. Local drainage is probably in the form of sheet flow or internal drainage through the soil. Significant stream flow apparently is restricted to periods of torrential rains and (possibly) rapid snot+melts in periods of spring runoff. FAZARnS : Several small depressions were noted in the south central portion of the site which could be associated with sinkhole topography. These features are adjacent to one of several small irrigation ditches on the property and • • •i -2- may be associated with water that once flowed in them. It is believed these depressions are notassociated with a close proximity to the Eagle Valley 7vaporit.e, but this possibility and their extent and magnitude should be investigated in further detail. This suggestion relates specifically to site selection of proposed residences. Other than the small possibility of subsidence or hydrocompaction, there appears to be no s eologic factors present that might produce or contribute to a. situation hazardous to life, health, or property in the proposed use of this tract. Slopes on the site are gentle ranging from 0° to 10°, therefore, no danger exists from iandsliding or soil flowage. There are no artificial hazards such as potential subsidence due to past mining and no significant mineral resources should be encountered. The surface of the site is approximately 750 feet above the present level of the Roaring Fork River, so there is no danger of flooding. There is no known radiation hazards associated with the formations exposed in and rear the proposed subdivision. The nearest known radioactive deposits are in the Morrison and Chime Formation in the Rifle Creek area approximately 4.0 miles to the West. The only adverse construction factor may be encountering shallow bedrock which may require blasting. pF COMMENnATION'S : In addition to the precautions and practices mentioned above, the actual physical characteristics and depths of the subsurface material should be determined by a soils engineer before structures are designed for the tract. w • • • • April 24, 1978 WATER AVAILABILIT" 1. Water Tributary: We are considering water tributary to the Roaring Fork River. Refer to: Preliminary Geology Report, Dept. of the Interior which describes ground water in 'Availability of Chemical Ouality of Ground Water in the Crystal River and Cattle Creek drainage basins near Glenwood Springs, West Central Coloradd' by: Robert F. Brogden and T. F. Giles, U. S. Geological Survey Water Resource investigation 76-70. 2. Domestic Water: One well is to be drilled for each house site '3 total). 3. Irrigation Water: Owner has 17 shares of water rights in "Missouri Heights Irrigation Company"., 'photocopy enclosed). 4. Adjacent well at the Fender Ranch one-half mile away. There are no water logs available, however, the well drilled here in the fall of 1977 produces/l8 gal. per minute. 1. r. mccarthy architect p.o. box 5133 aspen, colorado 81615 I would like to request consideration of a preliminary sketch plan review for a three-part subdivision called Southern Mirage of a 35 -acre tract I own as Meredith Morgan Homet on Misouri Heights. This land was purchased from through Cooley Investment Company registered in Garfield County Court House in late 1976 and I obtained Title Insurance on said parcel. I intend to subdivide into two eleven -acre lots and keep a thirteen -acre lot in the center myself, thus providing for three single -dwelling units. The land has Missouri Height Irrigation Company water rights and we intend to drill wells for domestic use. We are allowing 40 gallons per person per dwelling unit and 70 gallons for sewage which will be by a septic tank system. There is not cost for utility distribution as the three lots all have legal access to the main county road No. 02 which 02- which has electrical wiring running along the road.

KUIPER State Engineer We have reviewed the material submitted concerning the above referenced exemptions. The Goldman proposal will create one four -acre lot which is located approximately three miles southeast of Silt. Our Ground Water Section has indicated that a permit could be issued in this area for a domestic well. We have no objection to the approval of the Goldman Exemption. The Homet property is located on Missouri Heights. Ground water conditions in this area are very complex and it is questionable whether or not permits for domestic wells would be issued. Since the owner has seventeen shares of Missouri Heights Irrigation Company water for the land, we suggest that household use only wells be used to supply the three lots and the Irrigation Company shares be used for irrigation. If the developer agrees to this, we would have no objection to approval of the Homet Exemption. Very truly yours, a.. JAD/GDV:mvf Dr. Jeris A.
